What is XML-RPC, and why should I consider disabling it?
-
XML-RPC is a feature that allows remote communication with your WordPress site, but it can also pose security risks if not managed properly. Disabling it when not needed can enhance your site’s security.
-
Is there an admin interface for this plugin?
-
Yes. Please go to Settings > Simple Disable XML-RPC
-
How do I know if the plugin is working?
-
There are a few easy methods for checking if XML-RPC is off:
- Try using an XML-RPC WordPress client, like the official WordPress mobile apps. The WordPress mobile app should tell you that “XML-RPC services are disabled on this site” if the plugin is activated.
- Use the curl command to send an XML-RPC request to your site. If the response contains “XML-RPC services are disabled on this site” then the plugin is working properly and WordPress will not send data back to XML-RPC requests.
- Try the XML-RPC Validator, written by Danilo Ercoli of the Automattic Mobile Team – the tool is available at https://xmlrpc-check.hostpress.me/. Information and source code for the tool are available on GitHub at https://github.com/daniloercoli/WordPress-XML-RPC-Validator. Keep in mind that you want the validator to fail and tell you that XML-RPC services are disabled.
See the screenshots for examples of what these tools will return when the plugin is enabled.
